In this very special 100th episode, I am delighted to be chatting with fellow doula, author and antenatal educator Natalie Meddings. 

I was thrilled that she agreed to join me for a deep dive into the role of being a doula and educator, and we got into a discussion about how the maternity system has changed over the past two decades.

We voiced our concerns about how the medical model is so incredibly fear-based, but give solutions for how women and their partners can help themselves to ensure they don't get sucked into accepting unnecessary interventions.

We both feel that as pregnant women are living in a time where the system is so broken, it is wise for them to educate themselves about how to go back to basics and lean into the deep trust of their body. 

The foundation for preparing women is no longer about the way a baby navigates the pelvis, but much more about helping them to understand how to take their power back. 
To learn about what they are like as a person, in order to enable them to feel confident in taking complete responsibility for themselves and their baby - and have ownership of their birth. 

This is an incredible episode which I hope you will share far and wide.
